摘要
为探讨低水平铅损伤学习记忆功能的作用机理,采用NADPH—黄递酶组织化学方法和3H—瓜氨酸生成生物检测技术,观察了新生大鼠在400mg/L醋酸铅染毒40天后对脑组织内一氧化氮合酶表达及活性的影响。结果显示大脑皮质一氧化氮合酶阳性神经无数量明显减少(P<0.05),在海马区脑组织内一氧化氮合酶活性降低54.4%。结论:低水平铅暴露后可抑制大鼠脑组织内一氧化氮合酶的表达及活性。
To inveshgate the mechanism of effect of lead on learning and memory, the activity and distribution of nitric oxide synthase in neonatal rat brain exposed to 400mg/L lead acetate for 40 days were observed by means of NADPH-diaphorase histochendstry and 3H-citrulline generation bioassay. The results showed that the number of nitric oxide synthase positive neumns in the cerebral cortex was significantly reduced (P < 0.05), and nitric oxide synthase achvity in the hippocampus was decreased by 54.4% compared to the control group. Conclusion: the expression and activity of nitric oxide synthase were suppressed remarkably in brain of rats after exposure to low level of lead.
